Never before, have I been to this castle
yet I seem to know it
the sounds, the smells,
The voices, I’ve heard in my dreams
the past pulls at me
I touch a cold, stone wall
time slips, and I find myself there
a ghost among ghosts
I reach out, grasping air
Time folds back, I am here and now
Yet, the memories remain
both sweet and bitter
